NovelStartChapter 656 After taking several seconds to recollect herself, Roxanne finally replied: | had already promised her | would go to the concert.
What's the meaning of this, Mr. Farwell? Lucian’s reply came almost instantly. It read: I just figured you'd be busy handling the collaboration with the Damaris family for these couple of days. | won't force you to attend the concert if you don’t have the time.
A conjecture formed in her mind when she read the last sentence.
It must be because of what | said in the car about not forcing himself that made him bring this up suddenly. From his point of view, | was forced to agree to attend the concert because Essie kept inviting me over and over again. Is he trying to make up for past mistakes, then?

It's really wonderful that he can make a compromise. | hope he can keep up the behavior and keep his distance from me during the concert.
